Joshua doesn't really have much interest in what treasures he can get from the empire's treasury. At this stage of his strength, magic items that are not extraordinary can no longer improve combat effectiveness. His body and fighting spirit are the best. Armored and enchanted, his fists are the most powerful killing machines.
What's more, he already had a very handy weapon - the warrior looked sideways at the two boys and girls who were whispering and didn't know what they were talking about, and showed a smile.
If he really comes back with some weapon, there will definitely be a commotion at home.
But in any case, since Israel has made a decision, it will be free of charge. So after bidding farewell to the generous Emperor, Nostradamus took Joshua and others there. Where other palaces are located.
"There may not be very good things in the secret vault."
On the way, the old mage shook his head and said leisurely: "Those are some items that can only be used under certain conditions. As a collection of the royal family, they must be very powerful. They may not be used, but it depends on the quality of the person. "
Hearing this, Joshua thought of the messy gadgets he had collected, such as the Twin Snake Ring of Fire, which was only for women and he couldn't wear it. Only he could see it, and he still didn't know what it was used for. Burning steel fragments, so the soldier nodded in sympathy: "Indeed, I basically use the useful ones myself, and only the ones that are temporarily unused or cannot be used will be stored in the inventory."
"That's not what I mean... But it's good if you can understand it. Just saying this doesn't mean that the things inside are not practical."
Along the way, they met many palace staff. When they saw Joshua and his party, they all respectfully stopped what they were doing and stood there while Nostradamus led them through several Through the light and dark portal, after passing through several empty corridors, we came to a relatively quiet palace. While walking, the old mage explained: "Israel's strength is too strong. As a legendary dragon knight, Even if there are some good things, he really has no use for them, so he can only put them in his collection."
After finishing speaking, they came to a granite hall hidden deep in the palace complex.
Opposite this hall, there is a dusty door with endless light and dark magic runes flowing on it. The light flickers and releases powerful cold fluctuations. The entire hall is like the northern polar region, but there is no frost at all.
"Corex's seven levels of time and space confinement?"
Brandon, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke with a surprised look on his face: "A seven-fold combination of the ultimate mind level, a combined magic of time and space and spell energy? Even for the royal treasury, this level of defense is the highest level. !”
"When I set up this magic circle, it took me a lot of time."
The old mage stretched out his hand, and a burst of blue light burst out from his fingertips, touching the magic circle. Nostradamus smiled and said: "Since Israel said you can choose at will, there is no need to deal with it." Your Majesty, the emperor of the empire, is very polite. If Joshua doesn’t take something good back, he himself will feel embarrassed.”
As he spoke, he easily released the powerful defensive magic on the door. The dust-covered door slowly opened, and everyone slowly came to it.
"Please, Joshua, the others stay outside."
The old mage said this, looking a little mysterious: "The things inside may be very suitable for you."
What does a royal secret treasury look like
Maybe it's resplendent, maybe it's full of treasures, powerful magic items release rainbow light, filling the entire treasure house with brilliant colors...
Joshua thought about many possibilities.
But what appeared in front of him was an ordinary room full of antiques like a museum.
There are no precious gems and magic materials, no powerful enchanted weapons and armor, no magic books recording powerful spells, only rows of old armors covered with rust, broken blades and broken armor, and there are only The bottles and jars without any brilliance seem to be precious medicines.
"It really surprised me."
Squinting his eyes slightly, Joshua was not disappointed by this scene. Instead, he was intrigued by this abnormal scene.
Even he was secretly shocked by the sophistication of the previous seven-layered confinement formation. As the chief mage of the empire, Nostradamus was not far behind even if he did not advance to the legendary level, allowing him to be careful in his arrangements. A treasure trove of such a powerful magic circle must have something special about it.
First of all, there were those potions. Joshua looked at those dusty bottles and jars. He could sense that they actually contained powerful power, but they seemed to be some kind of special bloodline. They should be special bloodline awakening potions.
This kind of potion can give people a trace of extraordinary life blood, thereby awakening various abilities, and it has almost no side effects. The only shortcoming is that it is very good at reading faces. If it does not meet the requirements, it cannot be used at all.
After scanning these potions, Joshua knew that they contained powerful bloodlines including various giant dragons, even semi-illusory creatures like fairies, which almost only exist in the fantasy realm. Each potion was worth more than A magic weapon and a set of strong armor are even better, because the bloodline can be passed down stably, but the weapons may not.
But these potions have no effect on Joshua. The warrior has already passed the level that requires blood potions. If he goes one step further, the power of the ultimate level will naturally make his own life essence completely transcendent, and his descendants will also You will naturally have some special talents, and there is no need to use these medicines that will change the essence of your own life.
Although the potion is inconspicuous, it is extremely precious, which makes Joshua also interested in those ancient equipment. Maybe they are some hidden powerful equipment? Just like the divine machine before the contract, although it is covered in rust, once it is awakened, it turns into an extremely sharp blade.
Walking step by step, the soldier slowly looked at the old weapons or other equipment. From the way they were placed, it could be seen that these things were kept with great care, and there was not even a trace of dust on them. No, the purification arrays spread throughout the hall maintained the environment in the best possible condition.
But why
Joshua's brows furrowed. He could see that these weapons were obviously completely broken, and it was not hidden, but that was the fact.
Their sharp edges are not there, and the edges are even somewhat broken, not to mention the armor. Their armor has long since decayed, and the leather connecting the joints has deteriorated to the point of being unusable, no matter how well maintained it is.
Does it really take so much trouble to keep these things? Even the medicines over there are not kept as carefully as here.
Puzzled, he reached out and picked up a broken flag. Joshua stared at the flagpole with a slightly bent flag and the battle flag with a broken flag. The soldier whispered to himself: "What's so special about you?" Where can it be placed here?"
As he spoke, his mind swept over him, and the flag seemed to notice something. It vibrated slightly, as if telling a story.
But Joshua saw an illusion here.
It was a battlefield with mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The sun was setting slightly in the west, and under the light of the setting sun, countless soldiers could be seen struggling to fight the enemy. The wilderness was covered with blood and rivers were flowing. The world seemed like purgatory, and it seemed that it was about to be shattered. Amidst the shouts of killing in the sky, a black crack that was extremely dark and seemed to be able to swallow everything hung in the sky, and countless monsters poured out of it.
They were extremely large monsters with black carapace all over their bodies. They had huge horns, long tails, and bat-like wings.
A monster called a demon.
And in this battlefield between humans and demons, in the dim light of the sun that was about to set, a soldier holding a flag slowly stood up. Because his face was covered with blood scabs, his face could not be seen clearly. He was covered with wounds. , as if he was about to fall down in the next moment, but at this moment, his figure was so tall. The warrior stepped on the corpse of a demon and waved the flag in his hand.
There seemed to be sounds coming from the wind.
"The battle is not over yet—comrades!"
The voice was sonorous and powerful, as if it could travel through time and space: "Charge with me!"
The illusion ended here, and Joshua, who had reacted, stared at the broken flag in his hand in shock, and subconsciously held it tightly.
"The Second Battle of the Abyss?! No... it hasn't happened yet, it was earlier, more..."
The voice was slowly and lowly, and the warrior's expression gradually became solemn: "The last era - the first invasion of the abyss!"
This flag came from thousands of years ago!
The results of the system appraisal also appeared in front of Joshua.
[Daniel's legacy]
[Dark iron-level broken weapon, an ordinary battle flag, but it contains the cry from the soul of a human soldier. This power has allowed it to go through thousands of years and still not be completely damaged.]
[—Charge, even if it means death.]
"Could it be that these weapons... these armors..."
Holding the battle flag in hand, the warrior looked around at the broken equipment that occupied nearly half of the entire secret vault. Even with his knowledge, the shock in his heart could not be calmed down.
Putting down the flag in his hand, Joshua picked up a giant shield that was completely deformed by the heat. There seemed to be some pattern or magic circle drawn on the shield. It should have been an enchanted piece of equipment, but it was erased by time. , the warrior lifted it up and poured his spirit into it.
The illusion that appeared this time was not a battlefield, but a stream and canyon in the mountains. Several figures were fighting a huge figure, and with the roar of a dragon that resounded in the sky, no matter who it was, everyone knew its identity.
A giant dragon.
This giant dragon is attacking a team. There are many old, young, women and children in this team. They are trembling under the pressure of the giant dragon. Although the figures fighting in front are powerful, they cannot occupy the front of the giant dragon. initiative.
But no matter what, human cooperation is always stronger than a giant dragon fighting alone. As time goes by, the giant dragon gradually falls into a disadvantage, and just when the giant dragon realizes that it is about to be defeated, it roars at The women and children in the team breathed out a breath of hot dragon breath.
"No!"
Shocked roars came from several figures who were fighting, but a figure jumped out of the crowd at this moment. It was a young woman. She was holding a shield that was bigger than her body. He stood firmly in front of the dragon's breath, completely blocking the team behind him.
boom!
The high-heat beam directly hit the center of the shield. The instantaneous heat was enough to melt the metal. The enchanted solid shield also began to collapse and deform. The terrifying high heat coming from the metal was enough to scorch the flesh and blood of the warrior. What's more, this was only a momentary power. An ordinary woman who can only lift a shield when she explodes.
But under such high temperature, this young woman did not flinch. She screamed, cried, and confided her pain, but she still did not let go of the hands supporting the shield, even though those hands had been completely The same goes for roasted bones that turn into dry bones.
The dragon's breath is over, and the figure fighting in front has completely killed the giant dragon, but the young woman has been completely turned into a charred corpse under the high temperature of the dragon's breath, but even in death, she has not taken even one step back. .
[Ella's Guardian]
[Silver-level broken shield, an overly heavy giant shield, once had strong defensive capabilities, but it was too heavy in small-scale battles, so it was not used much, until a mother raised it in order to protect her child. it.]
[—A mother’s love is constant protection]
"I see... What is precious is not the weapon itself, but the history and will contained in it... "
-For a warrior, weapons and armor are just tools for fighting, but what is really fighting is himself and his will.
Taking a deep breath, Joshua's expression gradually calmed down. He looked at the countless broken equipment in front of him, knowing what was contained in them. There was a trace of respect in his eyes, and he understood the value of these equipment.
These are weapons that contain a warrior, or a person's soul and belief. Although they are broken, the power within them can make people understand what glory is, what persistence is, and what the responsibility and persistence of a warrior are... For Joshua like this For a powerful warrior, they may not have much effect, but they can make a cowardly person awaken courage from the depths of his soul.
The emperors and princes of the Diamond royal family all had bravery and faith far beyond ordinary people, perhaps because of this.
For a moment, Joshua couldn't make a decision. Such a decisive person actually fell into hesitation.
As equipment, their value is too small, but as heirloom tokens, they are truly priceless treasures.
"Which one should I choose?"
Looking at them, Joshua whispered to himself, and as if in response to the warrior's words, some of the weapons and equipment that had been placed began to buzz, making the sound of fighting between gold and iron, and he was the first to take it. The flag that was raised was even more automatic in the absence of wind. The broken battle flag fluttered, and the horn of charge was vaguely heard, but the shield like Ella's Guardian did not resonate.
Just as Joshua was choosing them, some of them also chose Joshua, while some chose to reject.
But the warrior seemed determined.
Joshua took a deep breath, and then he walked through each broken weapon and armor. The solemn and slow footsteps echoed in the room. The warrior felt that it had been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years, the cry from the soul or Silent persistence, keep it in mind one by one.
"Lost souls." He spoke, his voice low, but it kept echoing in the room.
I have taken your decision to heart.
I will bear all your faith.
